The foundation of the museum dates from 1852, when the British government established the Museum of Manufacturers in Marlborough House, St. James. This museum largely housed a collection of decorative arts objects that had been displayed at the Crystal Palace, which housed the Great Exhibition of 1851.
The Science Museum had its origins in the Great Exhibition of 1851, some exhibits of which led to the creation of a Museum of Manufactures and, in due course, to the South Kensington Museum. This museum, which opened in 1857, covered both science and art, and it was not until 1909 that the two sections were formally separated. (The arts section went on to form the core of the Victoria and Albert Museum.)
